Well, in my research for this piece, I found a 1998 book that argued that the Refugee Act was the beginning of the end of the GOP’s love of refugees — and for the same reasons they turned against welfare, name too many brown people getting federal aid https://t.co/rKXVkWJQyT https://t.co/vdi8VQ2P6E — PolitiTweet.org

I was curious as to where that comity began to break down, given the fact that the Refugee Act of 1980 passed the Senate unanimously. Also, according to Pew, we saw the highest refugee admissions EVER under two GOP presidents, Reagan and Bush https://t.co/rKXVkWJQyT https://t.co/UxpGHxtMnD — PolitiTweet.org

From there we see Reagan start to shift on immigration and refugees as the issue picks up steam on the right. But being anti-communist still won out over the nativist wing of the GOP. ….But then the Cold War ended and 9/11 happened. https://t.co/rKXVkWJQyT https://t.co/50jnIxdXMd — PolitiTweet.org
